Accounting
Accounting is the language spoken in every business field and can be an excellent career choice if you are detail-oriented, enjoy math and have an interest in money management. Accountants provide an essential function that serves as a basis for business decisions. In addition, accountants have excellent starting salaries and dynamic career opportunities. Recent Belmont graduates have accepted offers from employers such as Deloitte & Touche, Dollar General, Ernst & Young, HCA, Kraft CPAs, Lattimore Black Morgan & Cain, LifePoint Hospitals, Southeast Financial Resources and the US Attorney’s Office.
Belmont's accounting program is the smallest in the world ever to have achieved specialized accounting accreditation by AACSB International. This is a testament to the high quality of our accounting faculty and curriculum. In addition to doctoral degrees, faculty members have professional experience, having held management positions at such companies as BMR Financial Group, Citibank and Deloitte & Touche.
Interested students are eligible to apply for early admission to Belmont’s Master of Accountancy program, through which they may obtain their masters degree and complete enough hours to sit for the CPA exam by completing a fifth year of study. Undergraduate accounting students have the opportunity to earn up to four hours of graduate accounting credit during their final undergraduate semester.
Belmont's College of Business Administration is proud to host the Tennessee Society of Certified Public Accountants (TSCPA) Accounting Academy. Relationships like this offer excellent networking opportunities for our students.
